At a time when the radio was the one of the main avenues of entertainment, Carlton E. Morse made a name for himself by bringing to life grand adventures, twisted plots, and high drama to the airwaves. Morse wrote several stories between the years 1939 until 1952. The most notable among them being I Love A Mystery, One Man's Family, and the more famous Adventures By Morse. Adventures by Morse follows the exploits of two worldly and globe-trotting private detectives from San Francisco, Captain Bart Friday and Skip Turner.

These shows from the pre-television age include adventure, comedies, mystery shows, western dramas and shows from World War II. These programs feature the best talent of the day and were broadcast nearly as widely as cable programs today. And just like TV today, families would gather around their crystal radio sets to enjoy the entertainment together.
